Workshop
The 1 hour workshops are organized as team projects. They are meant for those who are familiar with Python and looking to take their learning to the next step. You will be a part of group of 4 and solve a problem within 1 hour using Python.
You will be placed into a team of 4. This is a manual process where we, the organizers try to mix and match the available attendees. During the mentorship seasons, we would group the mentorship cohorts first and then those who are not part of the mentorship program capping up to 50 in total.
Each team would be using 2 laptops with Python and Atom installed - one for coding and one for research. Every team member would have 15 minutes of keyboard time. After 15 minutes, the control of the keyboard would switch to the next team member.
You will be pair programming. Be mindful of the fact that not everyone would have the same level of experience. Some will be new to Python, while some would have considerable experience. Same with the tool chain. In order to keep the focus solely on problem solving, we highly recommend simple editor that everyone will be comfortable with like Atom or Sublime.
Slack channel info: TBD
The TAs would be keeping an eye on the solutions that the teams would be coming up with. We will select one team, who would be present their solution to the entire team. Then we would have an open session for people to look at each other's solution, ask questions and discuss.
